Aloha,

When I was selected to be a Chief Petty Officer I had a Chief order me to have any and all digital avatars changed to this:

As I was in much better shape (pre-back/neck/knee/shoulder injuries). I was a gym rat and worked out 2-3 hours a day every day, kept a clean shaven head and smoked a pipe.... And when you are going through "Chiefs season" when a Chief gives you orders.... you well, follow them!

And this one just stuck for me and ever since then, it has been my avatar. I have used some sort of rendition of this image throughout my various gaming profiles since.

Mahalo,

Also,

I am trying to find out why some of you aren't getting the missions or haven't gotten them, please put ST tickets in for this until then.

If you look in the armory at your coupons they actually ave an expiration date on them.

I love your avatar! LMAO!

Anyhew, IMO this is the main reason I wanted to get into Community Management. Because IMO I would like to think, in a small portion I could influence peoples interactions online. Since being behind a keyboard tends to sometimes remove peoples ability to be just simply civil with people, which I have a problem with.

Just be kind, decent human beings with each other and everything will be okay. At the end of the day, you can't necessarily control the actions of those on the other side, but you can influence them if you work with your fellow community members to TRY to push a narrative towards more civil interactions.

but thats just my 2 doubloons...

TBH, I think it might be a combination of things going on in the world and just in general peoples cultures have shifted less to "respect thy neighbor" and more to "I do what I want."

At the end of the day, believe it or not the overall WoWs community is pretty friendly, more so than most, that being said, every game in existence has its toxic group. I try not to let it get to me, though I know that isn't easy.

Join us live next Friday on the second episode of our historical talk show. This time, Jingles, Drachinifel, and Tuccy will discuss the Arctic convoys of WWII. Read it on the portal

EN: “Commanders, some of you may encounter issues with resources operations on 0.9.7 Public Test. We’re working on investigating and fixing it. Sorry for the inconvenience”

What ever you open on the PTS does NOT cross to a live account.

As for getting super containers on PTS, I mean, it's a game client so all the chances to get STs etc are the same.
